It was only 3 :30 p.m. (Indonensian time), so we filled up the rest of the day to do some shoppings. There were quite a number of factory outlets available besides Rumah Mode. Diago, Grande, Merdeka and Riau to name a few. Mr. Supri brought us to Riau Factory Outlet which was located along Jalan Riau. It just took us about 30 minutes drive from the gallery.
It was more or less similar to Rumah Mode except that it was a bit smaller. We spent quite some times here while waiting for my husband's niece, Wadiah, to accompany us. She arrived just nice after we had finished our purchases.
It was still drizzled. We walked about half km to a nearby restaurant, Caberawet. In Bandung city, menu with cheese and avocado were quite famous. I've tried "pisang keju" (fried banana served with cheese) and chocolate avocado drink. The "pisang keju" was worth tasting. The avocado drink with chocolate was a bit yucky...both chocolate and avocado were too rich and the mixture gave a mud colour...We catch up with Wadiah who had spent almost 4 years in Bandung studying dentistry.
We bid farewell to Wadiah about Maghrib. So before we left tomorrow for Jakarta, we wrapped the night in Bandung at Kartika Sari brownies outlet. Kartika Sari was a famous local brownies producer. We tried the chocolate and cheese brownies. The tastes were so....good. We bought some for ole-ole.
We back at the hostel about 9p.m. and the kids were so excited to play with the "Ninja" toy set purchased at Tangkuban Perahu.
Notes:
- I found that as a Muslim, it was convenient to travel within Bandung as musolah (prayer room) was always available either at the gallery, shopping outlets or restaurants.
- The weather was nice and fresh especially in the morning.
- The food were quite good and consumable.
- The visit was not complete without brownies as ole-ole.
